What is simple accelerator?
The accelerator effect is shown in the simple accelerator model. This model assumes that the stock of capital goods (K) is proportional to the level of production (Y): K = k×Y. This implies that if k (the capital-output ratio) is constant, an increase in Y requires an increase in K.
